6 Early Signs Your Liver Is Damaged

2. Bodily Waste

The National Health Service explains that Jaundice could cause changes in the bowel movements and bodily waste of someone, namely the color of their urine and stool. The urine of a person with Jaundice will appear darker in color and their stool will seem lighter. Dark-colored urine refers to colors like orange, brown, amber, or rust-like (like a cola).

It’s normal for the color of your urine to change throughout the day based on what foods you eat and how much water you drink, but dark-colored urine is something that should grab your attention. If you observe this at some time, make sure to drink plenty of water and take note the next time you go to the bathroom. If the color persists, it might be time to consult a doctor.
